"Where Am I Today?"

I spent a LOT of time traveling. I loved my job, but the endless nights in various Marriotts or Hiltons (you've seen one, you've seen them all), flying upwards of 150,000 miles a year and seemingly endless late night drives in bad winter weather 125 miles home from the Detroit airport because NWA/DL cancelled the last flight of the day did become tiring. It enabled me to retire very early though, so I really can't complain.

"Who Blew Their Nose On My Desk?"

"What a perfect example of the school atmosphere surrounding 14 year olds and a perfect title for a book some day." I still haven't written it, though.

Your subtitle could be "Snot Happens."

I'm not even sure that's really what he saw on his desk. It's just so typical of something a kid that age would blurt out. One time I took away a whole can of macadamia nuts from this kid when he was passing them around and causing a commotion. I told him he could pick them up after school. I must have gone into my adjoining office during class because after class I found an anonymous note from a snitch who said, "James stole his nuts from your drawer." Sorry, but I thought the wording of the note was hilarious, though I dealt with the kid the next day.Guess I have an adolescent sense of humor myself.

The title would be: "I Could Write A Book".......... (Not about jobs, but about life in general)

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).
